TETBoDAUx, La, Nov. 3.-There is good
reason to believe that very many, II not the
majority, of the strikers have gone into the
present movement against their will and
judgment, and only in consequence Of orders
received from their leaders A number Of
the more turbulent among them having been
arrested and placed under bvnd, several IN
stances have occurred Of hands seeking and
readily adopting any possible excuse TO re-
turn 10 work. As ii becoass more evident
with the lapse OF time that there is no proe-
pect OF yielding on the part of the planters,

hands will be brought from other States, IL
